2025 Harvesting Hope: Healing Begins With US Fundraiser Event
May 16, 2025 – The annual Harvesting Hope: Healing Begins with US was held May 16. The Kiwanis Club of Troy is a part of Kiwanis International, which works to help children around the world with a variety of service and fundraising projects. The Troy chapter serves children in the community with projects that help provide access to mental health services and programs, as well as opportunities to develop young people’s leadership abilities.
“Service is at the heart of every Kiwanis club, no matter where in the world it’s located,” reads the group’s website, noting that global members hold 150,000 service projects and raise nearly $100 million each year. “By working together, members achieve what one person cannot accomplish alone.”
This year’s fundraiser was held at Troy Historic Village and included wine tasting, hors d’oeuvres, entertainment, a silent auction, raffles, and opportunities to learn about the Kiwanis Club’s assistance mission. Proceeds for the event went towards youth mental health counseling sessions, associated with the KIT Mental Health Program, to help underserved students in need of financial aid. “KIT” stands for “Kiwanis Inspired Teens.”
Since the KIT Fund launch, more than 120 mental health counseling sessions have been covered by donations.
“In Michigan, nearly 60% of teens experiencing depression cannot access help — a truly alarming statistic,” said Colleen Reveley, with the ARISE Counseling & Training Institute, in a press release. “Families seeking mental health assistance often face significant barriers, including long wait times, limited in-person availability and overwhelming financial burdens.” She said the fund helps eliminate those barriers.
“This initiative enables and empowers youth in our community to move towards wellness and to heal during such a critical time in their lives,” Reveley said. “We are grateful for Kiwanis’ commitment to our community and our youth.” #KidsNeedKiwanis #CommunitySupport #MentalHealthMatters
